What are the main causes of severe wear in the middle of a tire?
1 Answers
The main cause of severe wear in the middle of a tire is excessive tire pressure. Below is a brief introduction to tire wear: 1. Abnormal wear in the middle of the tire: The primary reason for severe wear in the middle of the tire is that the current tire pressure is significantly higher than the standard pressure, which increases the rigidity of the tire and reduces its contact area with the ground, leading to excessive middle wear over time. Excessive tire pressure can also cause the tire to over-expand. As the tire temperature rises during driving, the pressure increases further, making the ride bumpier and increasing the risk of a blowout when encountering obstacles. 2. Abnormal wear on both sides of the tire: The reasons for abnormal wear on both sides of the tire are: low tire pressure or vehicle overload. When driving with low tire pressure, the entire weight of the vehicle presses on the side layers of the tire, leading to excessive wear on both sides and increased fuel consumption. 3. Abnormal wear on the inner or outer side of the tire: The main cause of abnormal wear on the inner side of the tire is related to the front wheel toe-in of the vehicle. Too much or too little toe-in can easily cause inner or outer side wear. Additionally, wheel camber has a significant impact on the wear of the inner and outer sides of the tire.
